Temporary hair colouring

I avoid temporary hair colouring available in spray cans. Most of them have warnings not to use if you suffer hair loss – they seem really harsh and unnatural.

Hair chalks may be a safer bet if you really want to colour your hair. These look great and they say they’re non-toxic, but I’m still waiting to hear back from them about the ingredients. The difference is that they won’t come into contact with the skin.

Hairspray

If you’re going for the wild hair look (like me as Mrs Beetlejuice in the picture above) then you’ll need hairspray options.

Halloween makeup is a lot of fun, but I’ve yet to find a completely clean and safe option available for sale. The safest bet is to make your own, and we’ve seen how to do that with nappy cream and some gel food colouring. What fun!

Are you using face makeup for Halloween? What are you and the kids dressing up as?

It’s worrying isn’t it? It’s quite necessary with shop-bought products to use preservatives to inhibit mould and bacteria growth. Homemade is great if you have time since you can make just the right amount – no need to preserve it!

Oh wow, I’d love to hear about them and I’ll feature them here! I’m in the UK and our top brand contain phenoxyethanol which comes with several health concerns, especially for children. Thanks for reading!
